Chapter 622 I'm a Ghost in the Underworld, Generation 2, Part 38
Lingmai Mountain Camp
The hostile atmosphere in the arena seemed to solidify into a tangible force, with the constant sounds of weapons being drawn and the leakage of air currents caused by surging spiritual energy, causing the surroundings to gradually tremble.
It seemed that if the Black and White Impermanence were to utter another provocative word, they would swarm and pounce on them.
Can be biased,
Xia Youmi and Xiao Hei were both extremely calm at this moment.
They also whispered some common-sense questions to the three little ones who had gathered around them. For example, the default trial rules were divided into three categories based on seniority. The lowest category was the newcomers, the second category was the peers who had participated before, mostly senior brothers and sisters from various sects. They were almost all outstanding disciples who were specially examined and trained by their sects to improve their ability to teach others in preparation for taking over.
The third category consists of representatives sent by the sect, mostly at the master level, with a few led by fellow disciples.
There is basically only one person at this level in each team; they are the core and decision-maker.
Others of different generations or higher will not participate with a particular stance.
therefore,
The trial grounds are clearly defined, and the hierarchy between individuals is particularly clear; only those of the same level can engage in sparring and competition.
Just now, that senior brother rushed up and picked Qingze.
Everyone is keeping quiet, which is a deliberate attempt to take advantage of the fact that the underworld doesn't know the rules.
The idea of quickly intimidating them before they even realize it was just a superficial act of politeness. However, not only did it fail to resolve the situation quickly and instead created a sense of unease, it was also exposed by unpredictable events.
When both substance and appearance are lost, that's what angers the elders.
in addition,
Although Black and White Impermanence are actually of the same seniority as the master, they are implicitly considered to belong to the second category and are not considered seniors.
They haven't reached the level of sharing the same level of discourse power.
Even if they managed to squeeze in, they could only be classified as Category 2.5. Therefore, their attitude towards the Black and White Impermanence was always to lecture the younger generation. This initially helped them to act superior, but now it's causing some trouble.
Based on their strength, since their second-class representatives can't beat the three little ones, then discussing one-on-one combat would only result in the Black and White Impermanence completely injuring their second-class juniors.
This is absolutely impossible!
Therefore, they must all rush in together without regard to seniority in order to defeat the five little devils with their combined strength.
They'd been posing for a while, but neither the Black and White Impermanence had responded. Those with good hearing were still listening to them explain their despicable acts. Although the visuals were blurry due to the darkness, the sound was unrestricted.
If these words were to be spread secretly, the shame would extend from a few individuals to the entire sect, and even to the reputation of the entire region. No one could bear the accountability of the Five Sacred Mountains Emperor.
......
Half the night had passed quietly.
"We can't wait any longer, Master. Perhaps they are waiting for someone's support."
“If I don’t vent, Master, I won’t be able to keep up.”
"Why don't we just retreat? Making enemies of one of the representatives of the Three Realms won't bring us any benefits, but we'll definitely be blamed for the losses."
The scene was silent, except for the whispered chatter of the underworld, but they didn't talk for long, as they were too nervous to keep track of time.
But gradually, secret messages began to echo in the minds of the three teams.
Some were angry, some were worried, and some had already given up.
"Master..."
The three little ones also wanted to call out something, but they knew their skills were not yet sufficient, so even when using secret codes, they did not share any useful information.
Simply change the tone of your voice to replace the content of your inquiry.
"Don't worry, they won't let us off the hook. We'll have to fight sooner or later. Consider this an excellent opportunity for training." Xia Youmi said earnestly, but her expression was actually quite relaxed. "When you take office in the future, you'll be restricted in many ways. There will be things like the demeanor of seniors, the ties between different regions, and the need to not easily abandon the overall situation. But right now, you're in the right and still juniors. If you go a little too far, no one will care too much. They'll just regret that their sect isn't strong enough."
“Yes!” Xiao Hei agreed. “Back then, when our master took us, we experienced such unrestrained fighting, and that’s when we understood the limits of our ability to fight.”
"For the sake of stability, there will be no large-scale chaotic battles in the Three Realms under any circumstances," Xia Youmi emphasized. "You are not fighting them to vent your anger or to make enemies, but simply so that you can have a clear mind when you encounter an absolute attacker like an evil spirit in the future."
The Black and White Impermanence didn't hold back their words, discussing everything from seniority to their views on the present.
This prompted some people to listen along without even realizing it.
Even worse, some were so angry they wanted to go berserk. What kind of philosophy is this? Does it mean that if they actively start a fight, they are paving the way for the future hope of the underworld?
Does it provide trials where no unexpected events will occur?
Feeling inexplicably annoyed, he wanted to stir up the atmosphere and let the little devils know that human cultivators are not to be trifled with either. Besides the most precious treasures, if they didn't hand over more treasures such as pills this time, they probably wouldn't let them go easily!
unfortunately,
What a pity.
Their heroic spirit did not last until dawn.
They did fight, but it was a fierce and blood-pumping fight.
Almost everyone with fighting ability except for the three powerful figures who remained unmoved rushed towards the underworld.
They were not without strength; their ability to defeat the participants in the trial was not only due to their individual abilities but also their teamwork. They also had numerous well-established strategies.
It was only because of various unexpected events and the annoying behavior of the Black and White Impermanence that he became agitated and restless.
When they actually clashed, the three boys felt unprecedented pressure.
This was only after the Black and White Impermanence intervened and helped to avert the fatal injury.
However, the more difficult it was to resist, the more excited Qingze and the others became. Their masters were right; this was an excellent training ground, and there had never been such a tense and dense array of moves.
Moreover, they also had to resist the masters using their spare energy to fuel the atmosphere.
In the arena, the master was vehemently rebuking those who bullied the weak and lacked martial ethics. His voice was as loud as a bell. Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai were singing back and forth like a duet, making the three seniors who were observing them gasp for breath.
It ignited a small disturbance on the enemy's part. If they weren't focused enough, they might also be affected by their own master's laughter and scolding.
at last,
The seniors on stage couldn't sit still any longer.
It's hard to say whether they were driven to desperation by the verbal attacks of the Black and White Impermanence, or whether they noticed something amiss in the situation, as the seemingly invincible team was unable to breach the Underworld.
The Black and White Impermanence are quite capable, as if they have hundreds of eyes. No matter where a continuous attack comes from, they can accurately judge and resist it, only throwing their disciples away without directly attacking them.
in this way,
If you can't beat them, but they still allow the other side to display their noble character and defensive skills, showing that they are in complete control, the disciples' mentality will be greatly affected. Is it because their behavior is not respectable?
Things that shake the foundations cannot be delayed.
They could choose to call a halt, apologize, and leave, making it clear that the underworld had won, and that would be the end of it.
Another option is to actually step in and make a move beyond their seniority, which would teach them a lesson they won't forget. However, their position and stance in subsequent negotiations would be less reliable, since they wouldn't have much of a case to play, and it would be uncertain whether the Five Mountains Emperor would protect them.
The Black and White Impermanence hold special positions, though they are not irreplaceable. However, this is not a matter of them interfering in other areas; it is a responsibility they can handle.
By now,
The three senior figures, sitting comfortably on their high positions, were unaware that the decision of whether to participate was no longer theirs to make.
Sensing a familiar aura fluctuation, the Black and White Impermanence exchanged a glance and quickly adjusted the formation.
Caught off guard, the offensive was turned around.
A strong gust of air emanated from the area centered around the three little ones. It was the combined power of the Black and White Impermanence that was transferring their magic to Qingze and the others, who were in an attack stance. In an instant, a group of people were swept away, and the sounds of coughing and injuries could be heard everywhere.
"presumptuous!"
The younger generation, struggling to run behind the elders, couldn't bear to lose face due to their special status. They were already half-coercing the elders into making a request for help, determined to vent their anger.
"Get out!"
"Go back!"
In the blink of an eye, with little room for communication, the three little ones and the first and second-class juniors of the human team all left the center point.
The Grand Elder and the Grandmaster faced off against the Black and White Impermanence.
The breath surged violently.
If we rank them by cultivation level, the abbot standing guard on the side is only the second strongest fighter.
Only when he and the Grandmaster attacked together could they suppress the Black and White Impermanence to the point that they had no room to resist.
However, a wavering voice emerged within their ranks, and the speaker was no ordinary person. He was a second-generation rich kid and a prudent individual who, despite having participated in the earlier brawl, did not intend to further tarnish the reputation of his sect.
The crowd was so engrossed in their competition that they had no idea what the Black and White Impermanence's confidence meant. It wasn't that they were invincible, but rather that they were likely stalling for time.
His hint was quickly confirmed.
By comparison,
The Black and White Impermanence were still able to dodge a short distance of attacks by following their two predecessors, but they showed signs of weakening more than anything else.
They had been distracted by the attack from the younger generation and had lost a lot of spiritual energy.
If you fight with all your might against a senior whose cultivation level is slightly higher than your own, it's only a matter of time before you are defeated.
Some were already watching leisurely, thinking that they wouldn't be allowed to leave the underworld after the event, and that they would have to divide up all the spiritual treasures and make the other party grovel before it was over.
unfortunately,
When the Black and White Impermanence had used ninety percent of their strength and were about to be unable to hold on any longer.
Approaching from afar, its speed was as swift as the wind.
A whooshing sound followed the dissipation of energy, powerful yet restrained, harming no outsiders and not affecting the Black and White Impermanence; only the Grand Elder and the Grandmaster were restrained.
"Buzz!"
With the aura of celestial clouds descending, it instantly made people think that celestial beings from the heavens had descended to earth.
But gradually they realized something was wrong. This immortal was not there to mediate the conflict between the two realms, but rather to unilaterally suppress the seniors who had made the move and tell them to step back without saying a word.
Cold sweat began to break out on their foreheads as they realized they couldn't speak.
"Take care of yourself!"
After saying this, Xianyun left with the two immortals and the five little devils from the underworld.
The situation crumbled, leaving behind a trail of panic.
"What's going on? Who?"
"Could it be a conspiracy by the Heavenly Court?"
"Ahem! Master, please say something!"
"..."
Above the celestial clouds, the Black and White Impermanence finished their breathing exercises and calmed their breaths before teasing the solemn-faced immortal.
"Master, you're so mean."
"Teach us how to use the 'silencing' trick too!"
